First. You have to understand the problem. What is the unknown? What are the data?
What is the condition? Detect the variables involved in the problem. Know the relationship between the variables
which have been ascertained. Understand which variable needs to be
thoroughly searched or answered. Draw a figure. Introduce suitable notation.
1)1)UNDERSTANDING THE PROBLEMUNDERSTANDING THE PROBLEM

Second. Find the connection between the data and the unknown. You may be obliged to consider auxiliary problems if an immediate connection cannot be found. You should obtain eventually a plan of the solution.
Consider the following strategies: 1. select suitable operations 7. working backward
2. use suitable diagram 8. simplify the problem 3. use analogy 9. using experiment 4. use the unitary approach 10. identify sub goal 5. guess and check 11. simulation 6. construct table 12. identify of math pattern

3)3) CARRYING OUT THE CARRYING OUT THE PLANPLAN
Third. Carry out your plan. Carrying out your plan of the solution,
check each step. Can you see clearly that the step is correct? Can you prove that it is correct?

4) Looking Back @ Looking Back @ Checking AnswersChecking Answers
Fourth. Examine the solution obtained.
Use another way to solve the same problems.
Adopting the inverse method. E.g.: division multiplication Can you use the result, or the
method, for some other problem?

answeranswer
Step 1 : Understand the problem
• each bike has 2 wheels
• each tricycle has 3 wheels
• 1 bike 1 seat, 1 tricycle 1 seat
• there are 27 seats = no. of bike + no. of tricycle
Step 2 : Devise a plan
• Strategy 1 : Construct a table
• Strategy 2 : Draw a diagram

Step 3 : Carry out the plan
• Strategy 1: Construct a table
No. of bikes
No. of tricycle
No. of wheels
15 12 (15x2)+(12x3)=66
16 11 (16x2)+(11x3)=65
17 10 (17x2)+(10x3)=64
21 6 (21x2)+(6x3)=60

• Strategy 2 : Draw diagram
First, draw all the 27 seats. Then add a wheel to each seat and when it reaches to the 27th seat, repeat back until there are 60 wheels.
Note : Each circle is a seat and each leg is a wheel.

The greygrey circle is the bike. The greengreen circle is the
tricycle.
There are 21 diagram of bikes and 6 diagram of tricycles.

Step 4 : Check the Answer
• Use the inverse method:
multiplication division
(21x2)+(6x3)=60 21x2=42 and 6x3=18 42÷2=21 and 18÷3=6 21+6=27 seats
Proven true!!

answeranswerStep 1 : Understand the problem
• each figures is a rectangle
Step 2 : Devise a plan
• Strategy 1 : Draw a diagram
• Strategy 2 : Look a pattern
• Strategy 3 : “gauss’ trick”
![Page 15: Polya Model (strategic problem solving)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061117/5466adf3b4af9ff9748b4965/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Step 3 : Carry out the plan• Strategy 1 : Draw diagramStrategy 1 : Draw diagram
First, draw all the rectangles. The first figure has only 1 rectangle. Then add with the number of rectangle below it. It continues till the end of the figure.
1 rectangles
3 rectangles
6 rectangles
10 rectangles
15 rectangles
![Page 16: Polya Model (strategic problem solving)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061117/5466adf3b4af9ff9748b4965/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Strategy 2 : look for a pattern
1 + 2 = 3 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15
Pattern -3
Pattern -4
Pattern -5
There are 15 rectangles
![Page 17: Polya Model (strategic problem solving)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061117/5466adf3b4af9ff9748b4965/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Strategy 3 : “Gauss’ trick”
1 x 5 1 x 4 1 x 3 1 x 2 1 x 1
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15 rectangle
For this last one : 1 + 2 + 3 + + 14 + 15 + 16
17 x 8 = 136
![Page 18: Polya Model (strategic problem solving)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061117/5466adf3b4af9ff9748b4965/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Step 4 : check the answers Add all the rectangles in the figures.
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 15
It is proven that there are 15 rectangles in the figures.

Problem 3Problem 3
In three bowling games, Lulu scored 139, 143, and 144. What score will she need in a fourth game in order to have an average score of 145 for all four games?
![Page 20: Polya Model (strategic problem solving)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061117/5466adf3b4af9ff9748b4965/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
answeranswerStep 1 : Understand the problem
• three bowling games, lulu score 139, 143, and 144
• average score is 145 for all four games.
Step 2 : Devise a plan
• Strategy 1 : Algebra
• Strategy 2 : Logic
• Strategy 3 : Make a chart
![Page 21: Polya Model (strategic problem solving)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061117/5466adf3b4af9ff9748b4965/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• Step 3 : Carry out the plan
• Strategy 1 : Algebra
X = unknown score
139 + 143 + 144 + x = 145
4
X = 154
![Page 22: Polya Model (strategic problem solving)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061117/5466adf3b4af9ff9748b4965/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Strategy 2 : Logic
If average needs to be 145, and there are 4 scores. The sum is
4 x 145 =580 From 580, subtract 139, 143, 144. X = 580-139-143-144 = 154
The missing score is 154.The missing score is 154.

Strategy 3 : make a chartStrategy 3 : make a chart
GAME SCORE AWAY FROM
AVERAGE
TOTAL AWAY
1 139 -6 -6
2 143 -2 -8
3 144 -1 -9
On the 4th games, it needs to be +9 over average.

Step 4 : check the answers Multiply the average score with 4
games
145 x 4 =(average) 580 139 + 143 + 144 + x = 580
X = 580 – 139 – 143 – 144 X = 154#
